Is there 5fm on DStv?

You can get 5FM on the Public Bouquet - you just need to play around and load extra channels -
The setting for the PVR Decoder is as follows:
- Press 'Menu' button
- Select 'Advanced Options'
- Select 'Dish Installation'
- Enter Pin '9949'
- Leave Network 1 Unchanged!
- Go to Network 2 & using the right & left arrow keys choose 'Other' for Network 2 & then press 'OK'
- Set 'Frequency' to '11170'
- Set 'Symbol Rate' to '26652'
- Set 'Polarization' to 'Vertical'
- Set 'FEC' to '5/6'
- Then Select 'Accept These Settings'
- Then Select 'Scan New Network(s)'

To access these Free To Air TV Channels:
- Press the 'TV' button
- Select 'Public PAS7/10'
- Press any of the arrow keys to bring up available public channels, mostly religious channels though...
- To access the public radio channels, press the 'Shift' button once while in the Free to Air TV Channels section & then 'TV' (Music) button.
- Use arrow keys to bring up menu of available music channels.

Hello 5FM!
 
The Public Bouquets - Free to Air - can only be accessed on a NON HD Decoder - which means all SingleView models or on the old DualView or SD-PVR (not sure about the latest ones though).

I did do a posting here a year or two ago on how to set up ALL the free to air channels on these models:

Also read my later postings there for the UPDATES to the settings - they were changed after my original posting!

I hope this helps you out!
